Woodford Reserve Distillers Select Straight Rye

This bottle was labelled #3031 from Batch 0887 and bottled at 45.2% ABV.  The nose was very nice, herbal tea with mint and sweet vanilla notes.  The mouthfeel is fresh, light and oily, bittersweet on palate with more vanilla, candy, black coffee and dark chocolate.  The finish has peppermint, wood and grassy rye notes.  With water it gets sweeter, even honeyed, while heat builds in the finish with chilli spiced dark chocolate.  Overall very delicious; a light and subtle of straight rye.

    Jack Daniel's Sinatra Select

    The nose has vanilla, peach jam and sawdust.   The taste is smooth with vanilla, caramel, cocoa powder and some floral, perfumed notes. The finish has sweet cola and dry oak. Certainly one of the better JD expressions but a little pricey.
